Located in the Houston Heights, the Waverly Residence is a modern home on an established street of two story homes boasting front porch typologies. The family’s desire for privacy resulted in a porch that rotates to internalize most of its function while still addressing the street. For this active family, yard activity and it’s visibility from within the home emerged as a priority for approaching the building’s relationship to the lot. Justifying the building mass to the Northern half of the site reinforces the scale of the design to the surrounding buildings and creates a large southern yard dedicated to play and brisket (is a Texas house a house without a barbeque?). The ground floor is clad in metal panel and a wood rainscreen that peels away from the structure to become both a fence and an entry threshold, blending the registration between the yard's privacy enclosure and the building skin. Variable width fiber-cement siding clads the second floor as a nod to the neighborhood vernacular. The pool and outdoor kitchen sit at the center of the yard, forming an island that divides the open play from private vehicular access at the alley. Shifted volumes delineate private space from the open public areas. The second floor extends over the public entryway to create a covered procession with cascading steps into the southern yard that traverses the length of the living spaces. The public program expands beyond the building enclosure to encompass the yard and living spaces. A horizontal shift in the ground floor volume produces both a private courtyard away from the lively public spaces and exterior delineation between private vehicular access and public entry. Within the open, ground floor plan, a change in elevation indicates the boundary between private and public space. Custom millwork provides ample storage for the young family. Playful patterns of enclosed storage with contrasting display boxes creates a cohesive millwork language throughout the home.

Aquatica Spoon 2 (Purescape 204AM) Egg Shaped Freestanding Solid Surface Bathtub: For those who love to bath together, the aptly named Spoon 2 bathtub is made to measure. With interior dimensions of 45.5” long at the bottom, flaring out to 62.75 inches at the top, this bath is easily suited to even two 6 ft plus bathers. The generous depth adds to the overall luxurious spaciousness of this very ‘companionable’ free-standing bath tub. Integrated slot overflow brings sleek minimalistic design appeal, increased water depth, improved ergonomics, simpler and lower cost maintenance. Not only is this bath stunning to look at and superbly spacious and comfortable, but it is also finished with a number of thoughtful details that add to your bathing experience. Here, for example, a variable-width rim has been widened at the foot end of the bath to become a very useful place for those bathing essentials - soap, shampoo, a candle or drinks for two. It’s hard to resist Aquatica’s deep understanding of finer points of bathing. Taking its inspiration from a perfect natural form of all, the egg, this bathtub is almost chameleon-like in its ability to nest happily in any bathroom style and color palette. Its smooth lines, organic form, simple elegance, and pared-back perfection make Spoon 2 at once contemporary, classic, formal or relaxed – at home in so many different design scenarios.

The Sensuality Mini White Back-to-Wall Bathtub boasts all of the perks of the full size Sensuality, but in a more petite, space-conscious design. With an extended rim on one side for back-to-wall installation, its one-piece, solid construction allows bathers to enjoy a full-body soak while also preserving space. Its natural, earthy forms, true to its Scandinavian origins, compliment the variable-width rim on this one-piece Aquastone tub.
